Dvorak Apr 2016 6:04pm, 5 Apr 2016 11,605 posts	Quote Pin Dvorak Kefalonia airport is so compact that the baggage belts go outside of the terminal (again, excused by the loveliness of the island). Bordeaux Flew in BA (via Gatwick, which was ok) and back Ryanair. Inbound to the spacious and it would appear lightly used original terminal. Out by the "low-cost" second terminal, hands down the worst I have ever passed through. It seemed to have been deliberately designed to rub the noses in the dirt of everyone who passed through it.

Red Squirrel Apr 2016 10:28pm, 5 Apr 2016 19,082 posts	Quote Pin Red Squirrel I've been to several landing strips in the Greek islands, often the first year they've had an airport. Been to Kefalonia quite a few times and have seen the airport go from landing strip to being automated. For me the more basic the better (although I did like Changi's street food and free comfortable cinema while you wait for your plane. The seats are so comfortable you can sleep in them.)
Wine Legs Apr 2016 4:20am, 6 Apr 2016 4,082 posts	Quote Pin Wine Legs Things that advertise "up to 100% success". Well, of course it can't be more than this, can it? What I want to know is your minimum guaranteed success. You see this shizzle for sanitary towels (up to 100% leak protection) and dandruff shampoo (up to 100% flake free).
Wriggling Snake Apr 2016 8:20am, 6 Apr 2016 11,518 posts	Quote Pin Wriggling Snake AR, KAthmandu was ace, those gaps in the wall where you walk through to get the on the buses, the one guy selling coffee. When I was there the PA broke so the announcements were with a loudhailer. LUKLA! Did you go to Lukla, a 12 degree slope on landing, a solid brick wall at the end os the landing strip, 2000 feet up, the worst safety record on earth. THAT is travelling, not some shit airport in france that should be good and provide proper facilities, but is basicaly crud. Hand on there is a picture of Lukla somewhere.....
